Summer in Southeast Florida would not be complete without a watermelon cocktail or mocktail around the pool. Enjoy summer light cocktails before they lose their enticing coolness.

Join a celebratory Bastille Day celebration on Thursday, July 14, 2022. French restaurants from Palm Beach to Boca Raton offer unique feasts in observance of France’s “fête Nationale.” The most common misconceptions about French National Day are that it is a celebration of the anniversary of the storming of the Bastille on July 14, 1789, and commemorates the official beginning of the French Revolution.

A sweet tea sangria combines two of the Palm Beach County favorite things, sweet tea, and wine. A traditional Spanish libation, sangria is a wine-based “punch.”  It includes seasonal fruit, a sweetener, brandy, and sometimes a splash of soda water, Sprite, juice, or tea.
